2015 Pilot Discussion.

[dariencc]

Mark C. Doyal is breathing a sigh of relief that former FBI Director James Comey did not leak his lie detector file on the way out the door. The spikes on his chart would have left little doubt that he belongs no where near an airline cockpit.

Note to Julian Assange: Get on it!

 

[dariencc]

In Mark C. Doyal's own words, "I will probably always be effected by the injustice of what happened."

I assume that he was also affected. 😀


Frightening to think that we have this ticking time bomb out there on the line.

Johan De Vicq has left Phoenix in his rear view mirror and gone to Miami. Now he doesn't have to face the guys who's careers he helped decimate. Why on earth they listened to the hotel school gasbag on the finer points of seniority integration and the RLA is a mystery.

He was full of heavily accented opinions on how USAPA would never get 200 votes and the Westies should turn down the deal at Wye River. The sad truth is that his only real expertise was in the layout of the breakfast buffet at the Wye River cafeteria.

I wonder if this is the weirdo we were "gifted" in LAX? His shtick wore out fast amongst the F/A's in LA. Again, if it is the same dude.

Ray has been on C&R moaning about the exposure of his weird A330 bunk room behavior on this forum. He was trolling for sympathy but the AA boys saw through his self-serving b.s. and trashed him. 😀

All he can do is quibble over details, because there is absolutely no doubt that something really strange occurred on that flight. I've verified it with some friends on the 330 and they say the fleet is buzzing about it.

They also said Ray is believed to be the guy who has been defacing USAPA stickers on the 330 cockpit clipboards.

Probably is that guy. He also posts pictures of his fellow East crew members unbeknownst to them on his Facebook photo album. Crew members who have bent over backwards to help him. Garnering totally inappropriate comments from his west pilot friends.
Posting sneaky photos of fellow crew members is not cool Ray.
Go on C&R and complain to LAA pilots about that Ray. I am sure you will get zero support.

Im so sorry you feel this way and that you felt the need to spread false rumors Tom that in and of itself is not cool!! Now kicking down doors was and out right unnecessary LIE and I gave you every opportunity to make this right last week for which you did not!! Now I have been nothing but kind and descent to everyone in PHILLY yet you guys get out here for no reason other than childish sport and talk **** about me really man? I take tons of photos NOT to bash a single person but rather to document my time in the 330 flying to places I have never been and flying with new friends, sorry you seem to take offense being part of my great experience. I will remove any photo with you in no sooner than I am done with this post.

Now to your fellow east running buddies that somehow feel I am angry, let me help ease your concern right now. I am no where near angry, its over and done and unlike some of you I have decided for my own sanity and piece of mind to move on. I am a line holding G4 fo by CHOICE that can hold G2 capt AND have 14yrs left to play so brothers I am a damn sight far from angry.

Post what ever you wish about me call me names talk about my bald head or what ever you like but dont tell lies about me.

Well this was what I has hoping to avoid!! The key here people is to set
up with UAL and get a prenup. Parker and team are not about to let u sap
ass block their deal with UAL. We need to focus on reaching out to as many
people in the UAL MEC as we ALL CAN. FENCE the prick in the east for 30yrs

Ray Burkett

Earth to Ray! Set up a “prenup” with UAL? Ray, ALPA’s not our CBA any more. And YOU aren’t the C82 FO Rep anymore. C82 doesn’t exist anymore. In fact, the entire LAS base isn’t going to last through the fall!

Sorry, Ray, but the UAL MEC isn’t going to give you or AWAPPA the time of day. They are represented by ALPA and ALPA is hanging it out if they negotiate with any group that isn’t the CBA. If they do and get caught at it, they could end up with a DFR that will make their $50+ million Duke-Spellacy settlement in the 1990s look like a parking ticket fine. The UAL MEC Merger Attorney is AWAPPA’s Jeff Freund. Can you say conflict of interest? How can he represent us and the UAL pilots at the same time? How can he give us any legal advice on defending the NIC while he’s representing UAL’s MEC? If a merger announcement is made, who do you think he will represent?

Enough of Ray’s fantasy union. At the bottom of this U-Turn is a summary of the first round of planned reductions over at UAL. The source is their internal employee “newsline.” We believe that the information is authentic. Note that the “first set of changes… will enable us to remove 30 of our B737 aircraft, the least efficient of our fleet.” At 6.5 crews (13 pilots) per aircraft, that’s a hit of 390 pilots on the streets. Proportionally, that would mean a furlough of about 148 LCC pilots if we were “fairly and equitably” sharing the pain.

The UAL internal forecast is just a blip on the radar screen when compared to the “What if” comments by Chicago Tribune reporter Julie Johnsson, written yesterday. According to her article (paraphrased, because of copy write laws – the link is: <http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-sun-united-tilton-mergermay11,0,1669926.story> http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-sun-united-tilton-mergermay11,0,1669926.story), the New “U” could park the entire 737-300 fleet (111 aircraft) of both carriers, producing over a billion dollars synergies.

At 13 pilots per plane, that’s an 11% reduction or 1443-pilot furlough from the total of approximately 13,000 active pilots. Proportionally, under ALPA’s “fair and equitable pain sharing,” the West hit could be about 192 furloughs.

So, does anyone really want a piece of that “fair and equitable” ALPA-pie or a Ray Burkett “prenup?” As much as you might hate USAPA, Ray, they do control both contracts. More importantly, they control the TA and its floor of 120 West planes and 202 East planes.

The U-Turn

 

[dariencc]

Ray likes to pretend that his cockpit photos are simply harmless fun. If that were true, you would see many pilots putting similar ones on social media. You don't.

This was a deliberate attempt to embarrass a fellow crew member and a play for cheap laughs from his Westie pals. I've forwarded the photo in question to several friends on the 330. I'll provide an update on their reaction. I doubt it will be favorable.

 

[dariencc]

Between Ray pounding like a madman on that bunk room door and the Westie nonrev pilot who pissed all over the cockpit door on a translatlantic flight, it's high time the company provide additional security measures when former AWAPPA members are known to be on our A330s.

It definitely sounds like Johan but I don't know if he did some time in LA prior to going to Miami. There might be a clone.

There are so many Westies flooding into LA and they all know that he screwed the pooch with the seniority debacle. So I'm not sure that LA would qualify as a "safe space" for the highly trained hotel catering expert.

I cant help what others do and or think or really say but my photos are just as I said to document my new experiences. I am so very sorry that you feel the need to make things about east and west. That is over and has been for some time now, we are where we are and the ADULTS have all moved on. Im sorry you ended up jr to where you wanted to be. I am good where I am thank you. Now last week you were claiming that I kicked the doors down and did damage I see this week its down to just pounding. Well sir if there is/ was damage please produce the write up for it???? If you have more than just Tom's childish lies in the way of proof please share that for the class as well, maybe you have the IOE capt's account or maybe that of the Ck airman on that flight?????????????? What? anything??? No like the child you are you dig up 10yr old posts of when I as a council VC within ALPA. This makes you look like an idiot! You got nothing child NOTHING!!!!

OMG TOM are you going to spend your last year here digging up 10yr old union posts?? WOW how sad bro how very sad. WELL its your life live it how you see fit. I am to you as well as anyone on this fleet very open to discuss anything you wish. I would hate for you to have to work with me again and you feel uncomfortable, it was rather clear last week too. It should not be like that at all and if at any point you want to talk about it over coffee or tea I remember you dont drink coffee im open to that.

Enjoy your week...

Read the comments associated with those photos ? You deliberately set those two pilots up and received comments you intended to.
You are going to make lots of friends on the 330 acting like that.
Nobody is going to trust you.

They should have been fenced off our planes for the duration, he seems to be a real whack job with a vendetta.
